How does
FrogLube work?
When a weapon is fired, carbon, lead, copper, brass
and other fouling particles are produced. FrogLube
is a heavy specific gravity food grade
substance that creeps deep into the pores of the
metal and acts as if to ‘season’ the surface
of the bore, any friction points and all areas
treated with the lube. Once treated, fouling
particles can no longer bond with metal surfaces,
instead, they will be suspended in a detached state
and easily wiped or brushed from the surface. This
also applies to other loose fouling particles such
as dirt, dust and sand.

How often should I use FrogLube?
You should follow manufacturers recommended
guidelines. Make sure the weapon is unloaded before
inspecting for cleaning. Cleaning weapons regularly
helps maintain reliability and extends the service
life. You may choose to run a bore patch through the
barrel before firing or when preparing the firearm
for service to test for fouling particles or a
blockage. Inspect glide and friction points and
cycle the action to check for smooth function.
Apply a sparing amount of FrogLube to glide and
friction points before operation. After firing, when
the barrel is hot, is a good time to insert a
generous amount of FrogLube into the barrel as the
heat will accelerate the absorption into the pores
of the metal. After treatment, you will notice a
marked reduction in friction. It is not necessary to
do this after every use, but should be done at
regular intervals. You should ensure the excess FrogLube is removed by running a bore patch through
the bore until it is clean and smooth.

Will FrogLube harm
non-metal surfaces such as plastic, rubber, nylon or
wood?
No. FrogLube will actually enhance the
condition, moisten and preserve these materials.
|
    |
|
Will FrogLube remove
petroleum products, oils and grease?
Yes. FrogLube dissolves carbon and
petro-chemicals on contact. You should discontinue
use of petroleum or other petrochemicals as it will
conflict with the optimal performance of FrogLube.

Will FrogLube™ harm
after-market finishes, bluing or other
permanent coatings such as night sights?
No. In fact, it will serve as a cleaner and will
provide lasting protection against oily film
build-up.

How do I use
FrogLube in cold weather?
Always follow manufacturers instructions for
your firearm. FrogLube is designed for arctic
use. When you follow FrogLube directions, your
lubricant is contained "in" your firearm, not
"on" it. Field strip and clean off any excess
lubricant or fouling using FrogLube Solvent.
Wipe Dry. If needed, use FrogLube CLP lube very
sparingly. Your firearm is now ready for cold
temperatures. For comprehensive instructions,
follow the guidance provided in professional
manuals such as the US Army's Field Manual FM
31-70, Chapter 6.

Some bore cleaners
recommend a time limit for application. Does that
apply to FrogLube?
No. FrogLube may be left in place indefinitely.
|
    |
|
Will FrogLube™ leave any residue when it dries?
No. FrogLube penetrates deep into the
surface it contacts. Once dry, the surface will
become slick to the touch. During firing, the lube
will "wick" to the surface and provide a slippery
and wet appearance to glide surfaces and hot spots.

|
Can FrogLube be used with airsoft and paintball
guns?
Since FrogLube is non-corrosive to
plastics and rubber, it is the preferred lubricant
and preservative for O-rings, non-ferrous and rubber
parts. FrogLube will actually condition O-rings and
improve compressed air and pressure tank retention
properties.

|
Are there any measurable benefits?
FrogLube’s use in treating gun barrels
has recorded muzzle velocity increases of between
3-12%. This has been independently verified. It has
also shown drastic reductions in shot group standard
deviations in 5-shot groups.
|
    |
|
Does FrogLube have a pleasant fragrance?
The fragrance will improve the odor of
storage containers such as gun safes, gun cases and
in armories; however, it is not intense enough to be
detectable in field use.

|
Is FrogLube made in the USA?
Yes. FrogLube was developed by US Navy SEALs. It’s ingredients are all US made. It is
manufactured, stored, distributed, and retailed by
US companies. There is absolutely no foreign
component to this product.
Your choice of FrogLube will
encourage US energy independence and is in
compliance with White House Executive Order 13423. FrogLube will not be sold to those countries who
violently oppose the policies and national
objectives of the people of the United States of America.
